Weiss PR Will Handle Public Relations For Wynyard, Mind Over Machines

BALTIMORE, MD (10/1/14) – Weiss PR, Inc. – a Mid-Atlantic-based public relations firm which helps clients reach, engage, and influence the right audiences in order to achieve their communications and business goals – has added two new clients.

Weiss PR has been named U.S. agency of record for New Zealand-based Wynyard Group, a market leader in risk management and crime fighting software used in investigations and intelligence operations by government agencies and financial organizations. Wynyard’s solutions help solve and prevent crime, defend against advanced persistent cyber threats, and counter terrorism.

Weiss PR will also handle public relations for Mind Over Machines, an IT solutions firm that provides application development, data management, and IT consulting for financial services companies and healthcare organizations.

In addition to its new clients, Weiss PR recently expanded its relationship with DDG, a worldwide leader in delivering inspired planning, architecture, interiors, graphics, and design solutions that transcend convention, invite and explore new possibilities, and celebrate the power and pageantry of public space. In addition to the U.S., Weiss PR is now handling DDG’s public relations initiatives in Turkey, Dubai, and Russia.

Weiss PR will deliver a variety of services for these clients, including media and influencer relations, social media, and marketing services – all of which will be anchored by strategic communications planning.

The addition of these new clients represents a continuation of the record growth Weiss PR has experienced over the past 18 months. During that period, the firm added a number of new clients – including OpalStaff, SafeMonk, TrainACE, and Verne Global – while significantly expanding its real estate practice.

Weiss PR also broadened its technology practice late last year with the addition of Matthew Pugh as Vice President. Pugh has more than a decade of public relations and digital experience, with an emphasis on high-growth B2B technology companies.

Over the past two years, Weiss PR’s significant growth has earned it a place on the Baltimore Business Journal’s list of Fastest Growing Private Companies, as well as a top 20 ranking of PR firms in the D.C. region by O’Dwyer’s. The firm has also earned several industry accolades, including most recently a Gold Award in the Fourth Annual PR World Awards for the public relation campaign it designed to launch and promote SafeMonk, an encryption security solution designed specifically for the file sharing service, Dropbox.
